Blarney Stone
The stone really exists, but it's still legendary. --Srleffler 04:48, 21 October 2006 (UTC)
 * "Legendary" means that its existence cannot be proven, not disproven. Waitangi 21:43, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

EveryDNS
Please do not keep reverting my edits to the EveryDNS page. See the text I posted to the talk page at the same time as my last edit (that you most recently reverted). The text I quote there was present on the EveryDNS.net homepage for most of the day yesterday. It was presumably only removed because the attack is believed to be over. If you are still unable to access any of their nameservers, perhaps you have old IP addresses cached for them in a local resolver. ns1.everydns.net (209.131.97.97) and ns3.everydns.net (216.218.240.206) are both responding immediately to my test queries, and ns2 and ns4 are responding intermittently. They are most certainly not 100% down, as the page reads when you revert in the way that you have. —Krellis 16:19, 3 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Any incorrect fact I will remove. Your information was clearly wrong.  The reverted version may not have been completely accurate either, but it was better than your version. Waitangi 21:45, 5 December 2006 (UTC)
 * I'm sorry, but the "clearly wrong" statement that you removed was 100% correct. You removed text which read "As of 17:14, 2 December 2006 (UTC), the EveryDNS website indicates that the attack is being mitigated and service has been restored."  As of that time, that statement WAS true.  EveryDNS subsequently (and inadvertently, according to a discussion I had with David Ulevitch) removed the statement when moving the site to a new server.  I will again point you to the text on Talk:EveryDNS, which I copied directly from www.everydns.net at the time referenced in the text you removed. —Krellis 22:11, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

List of idiots
Please do not make personal attacks on other people. Wikipedia has a strict policy against personal attacks. Attack pages are not tolerated by Wikipedia and are speedily deleted. Users who continue to create such pages will be blocked from editing by administrators or banned by the arbitration committee. Thank you. Veinor (ヴエノル(talk)) 04:28, 4 December 2006 (UTC)
 * It's not an "attack". It's an opinion; a valid one, which happens to be shared by many others. Waitangi 21:43, 5 December 2006 (UTC)

Sentogram
Hello. This dosn't appear to be a real word. There is such a thing as what you talk about, but it is not called that. Check for articles that may already exisist. And, if you create new pages in the future, make sure to add references and sourced information. Thanks, Danski14 02:30, 3 February 2007 (UTC)
